To say there isn't a difference between a ctr motor and an itr motor is plain stupid...

to say that they will run equally is even more stupid...

Yes you can get "good numbers out of any honda block". As mentioned in some other threads bisi's d15 was spanking EVERYTHING out there... does that mean you should run out and swap in a d15... I don't think so...

The arguement is that .2 liters giving IDENTICAL everything else... the engine with more displacement will ALWAYS beat the smaller disp. engine... it's just that simple...

to say the "numbers game is never right" is just wrong... a 1.8 is BETTER than a 1.6 given the same technology. The ONLY thing that will make a 1.6 better would be a superior build quality and tuning...

It's plain awe inspiring to me that someone could even try to argue that .2 liters doesn't do much... if that's the case then why would honda have ever built anything but 1.6's... there are apparently NO benifits to more displacement...

Whatever this is just rediculous... you're right your ctr motor is way better than an itr...
